TomKat

Is anti-Thetanism the last socially acceptable bigotry? There's no other explanation as to why the normally docile--nay, subservient--entertainment press has simply killed Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes for their upcoming sham marriage. They've let a thousand bigger contrivances slide, but they seem unwilling to let this go until one part of the happy couple says, "Xenu be damned, you're right: It was all a stunt!"

The latest broadside comes from W magazine, with a story so mean it could have appeared in Spy or the New York Observer. Read it in toto; it's hard to believe. So mean, in fact, that it even makes me a little uneasy.

Well, not really.

Dude, Scientology is a fraudulent cult that uses brainwashing and indentured servitude to fatten the wallets of the several "Operating Thetans." Demanding an explanation from its most well known evangelizers is not "bigotry." There are parents trying to coax their children out of something resembling white slavery. Don't be a dick.
